I aim to help students attain goals effectively and efficiently through smart teaching practices. I believe, "Understanding beats Memory", and therefore I focus on the conceptual clarity of my students. I believe, "Understanding of the basics is the key to success", and therefore with my students I always stress on starting from the basics and progressing step by step. I believe, "Hard work beats Intelligence", and therefore my first lesson to students is always focussed on the importance of hard work and practice.
I graduated from University of Sheffield, UK with PhD in Mechanical Engineering and a focus on Additive Manufacturing. MS Mechanical Engineering from Georgia Tech Atlanta, Georgia USA with a focus on Control Systems and Energy Systems. Got my BS Mechanical Engineering from University of Engineering and Technology, Peshawar, Pakistan.
I aspire to be a role model for my people who live in Shangla the most backward district of KPK, Pakistan. Since my O' Levels I taught in my village schools during the summer vacation. I helped kids prepare for their exams understand the basic concepts of science. I travelled to USA and UK for my own education and gained a perspective of teaching methodologies in the best schools of three different countries.
I am a self-motivated Engineering professional desiring to help raise the level of understanding of every student I can reach. I have the ability to analyze information quickly, look outside existing boundaries to identify implications and linkages and propose creative solutions. I am a dynamic leader capable of direct and open communication, seeking diverse input and persuading students by the vigor, sensitivity, and clarity of my arguments and actions.
In my experience helping students understand the concepts of science by realizing the link of science to everyday life, is very effective. I am a firm proponent of education being absolutely necessary for quality life, and try to impart this to all my students.
